Pain for Art: Borat Burns to be Hairless Twink

By Jonathan Duffy

Sascha Baron Cohen, the creator and star of Ali G and Borat recently received terrible burns after attempting to bleach his body hair for an up coming film role. The Brittish comedian used peroxide in an attempt to achieve an all over hairless look for his new film Bruno. In this latest creation, Baron Cohen will play a flamboyantly gay Austrian fashion reporter. The hair removal reportedly took a serious turn for the worse when he had an allergic reaction to the peroxide he was using. The actor was rushed to hospital for treatment and told the Sun that the pain was so severe around certain parts of his anatomy that he couldn't sit down for three days. If this is the length an actor is willing to go to in order to give an authentic performance then the academy award should definitely go to Sascha Baron Cohen. Let's not forget the images of the mankini or the scene in Borat where he was willing to take a mouthful of hairy, fat, man-bottom just to make his audience laugh. We eagerly await your satirical look at the fashion world Sascha, and from the looks of the online pictures Bruno is pretty hot too. Well worth the pain.
